Amelia says on her fundraising page: “I can’t imagine what either of the families are feeling, having no home or none of their belongings. Many memories made from their childhood from photos of their grandchildren, family, friends to many valuable things.”

Keegan Drive resident Kelsey Jones, 27, said: “Nobody knows how the fire started but it spread so fast. It’s amazing no-one was hurt.

“We all know the families concerned and are devastated for them.

“It was awful. They were distraught and crying in the street.”

She added: “This is a very close-knit area and when something like this happens, we all try and help out.

“Every little helps to get them back on their feet.”
